Summer 2014 Must-Have: The Midi Skirt

Summer 2014 Must-Have: The Midi Skirt

Good news: booty shorts are so last summer. Can we join together in a synchronized sigh of relief?

This summer, I’m trading the exposed thigh look for a more conservative style and crushing on the latest and greatest of 50’s-inspired fashions: the midi skirt. Falling right between mini and maxi (get it?), this shin-length, high waisted staple pairs perfectly with crop tops, cardigans (if you want to channel Sandy) and tanks, and flatters long legged ladies or short-legged fashionistas (this gal) with heels on hand.

Still lacking midi inspiration? Fresh out of the K-Dash krew’s Parisian wedding adventures, Kourtney K shows us how it’s done with a sensibly chic poodle skirt-meets biker chick get-up. Want to steal her style (join the club)? Who What Wear found the same navy, dotted midi from ASOS. In Styleis also speaking my language with this round-up of the season’s best flowy mid-length bottoms ranging from pastel to floral and eyelet patterns.
